    Patricia Phelps de Cisneros Por más de cuatro décadas Patricia Phelps de Cisneros ha sido promotora de la educación y del arte, con un enfoque particular en América Latina. En la década de los setenta estableció, junto con su esposo Gustavo Cisneros, la Fundación Cisneros con sede en Caracas y Nueva York. La misión de la Fundación es contribuir a la educación en América Latina y dar a conocer el patrimonio cultural latinoamericano y sus múltiples contribuciones a la cultura global. La Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, fundada a principios de la década de los noventa, es la principal iniciativa cultural de la Fundación Cisneros. Primeras influencias, trabajo y educación William Henry Phelps (1875-1965), bisabuelo de Patricia Cisneros, emprendió una expedición ornitológica en Venezuela, tras concluir su tercer año de licenciatura en la Universidad de Harvard. En ese viaje se enamoró del país y, al concluir sus estudios, regresó para asentarse permanentemente en el país. Phelps fue el gran emprendedor de su época, desarrollando prácticas modernas de negocios y estableciendo varias compañías, desde emisoras de televisión y estaciones de radio hasta importadoras de automóviles, refrigeradores, victrolas, máquinas de escribir, además que fue pionero en introducir el gusto por el béisbol en el país. Creó también la primera fundación en Venezuela. Su profundo interés por las ciencias naturales lo llevó a convertirse en un notable ornitólogo, a catalogar muchas especies aviarias de Suramérica y a publicar sus descubrimientos junto a su mentor, el científico Frank M. Chapman, en el Museo de Historia Natural de Nueva York (AMNH por sus siglas en inglés).

  • When Fear Is Substituted for Reason: European and Western Government Policies Regarding National Security 1789-1919
    WHEN FEAR IS SUBSTITUTED FOR REASON: EUROPEAN AND WESTERN GOVERNMENT POLICIES REGARDING NATIONAL SECURITY 1789-1919 Norma Lisa Flores A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2012 Committee: Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Mark Simon Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Brooks Dr. Geoff Howes Dr. Michael Jakobson © 2012 Norma Lisa Flores All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Although the twentieth century is perceived as the era of international wars and revolutions, the basis of these proceedings are actually rooted in the events of the nineteenth century. When anything that challenged the authority of the state – concepts based on enlightenment, immigration, or socialism – were deemed to be a threat to the status quo and immediately eliminated by way of legal restrictions. Once the façade of the Old World was completely severed following the Great War, nations in Europe and throughout the West started to revive various nineteenth century laws in an attempt to suppress the outbreak of radicalism that preceded the 1919 revolutions. What this dissertation offers is an extended understanding of how nineteenth century government policies toward radicalism fostered an environment of increased national security during Germany’s 1919 Spartacist Uprising and the 1919/1920 Palmer Raids in the United States. Using the French Revolution as a starting point, this study allows the reader the opportunity to put events like the 1848 revolutions, the rise of the First and Second Internationals, political fallouts, nineteenth century imperialism, nativism, Social Darwinism, and movements for self-government into a broader historical context.

  • Television a La Carte: American Broadcasting Cos
    THIS VERSION DOES NOT CONTAIN PAGE NUMBERS. PLEASE CONSULT THE PRINT OR ONLINE DATABASE VERSIONS FOR THE PROPER CITATION INFORMATION. NOTE TELEVISION A LA CARTE: AMERICAN BROADCASTING COS. V. AEREO AND HOW FEDERAL COURTS’ INTERPRETATIONS OF COPYRIGHT LAW ARE IMPACTING THE FUTURE OF THE MEDIUM Andrew Fraser I. INTRODUCTION Somewhere in Brooklyn, a large warehouse holds a bundle of over one thousand rabbit-ear antennas.1 In many ways these antennas resemble the ones that rested on top of generations of older television sets before the advent of cable, except for one small fact—these rabbit-ear antennas are each roughly the size of a dime.2 It is ironic that this ancient, seemingly outdated piece of television technology might signal the medium’s newest direction, but with Aereo at the helm, this may actually be the case. Aereo is a technology platform currently available exclusively in New York City that airs live broadcast television through the Internet to a subscriber’s mobile device, computer, or web-enabled television.3 When an Aereo subscriber wishes to watch a broadcast, he or she instructs an assigned Aereo antenna to capture signals from the public airwaves and to transmit them over the Internet to the subscriber’s mobile device.4 No two subscribers ever use the same antenna at the same time, and Aereo also offers DVR recording technology, so subscribers can watch shows live or recorded.5 With this incredible merging of both old and new technology, Aereo could have an enormous impact on the way consumers watch television, assuming that it can first survive what promise to be some intense legal challenges.
